Emerson Elementary-Middle School

Horrific....run. If anyone gives this school more than one star they are crazy.

ORA has been a transformative experience for all of my children. They have recently made numerous changes in administration and those changes are starting to show. Along with a number of other parents, I have had some issues with the Academy in the past but as of now, I can see that it has become a successful educational institution. The teaching staff really shows that they care not only about the students, but about the parents as well. My kids are definitely engaged in classroom content, and go to school everyday, excited about what they may learn. From me, ORA is highly recommended.

WORST SCHOOL IN DETROIT. The security guard threatens parents with pistols. The principal cares more about his flashy appearance than parent’s concerns. My child gets released to random adults who are not on her release form. Yesterday they released my child out the school doors by herself and no signed her out. No safety or education here at all!!!

Great work environment, I live in the neighborhood and work at the school.

It's a great school and my daughter has improved greatly. I was really concerned with how much she had learned during the pandemic because I'm not a teacher but they found where she was academically and built from there and I'm so proud of her improvement. I can't thank them enough for how much care they have put into her education and into her character. It takes a village to raise a child and I'm so happy they helped me in raising her academically.
